The Dental Crown Procedure

The procedure to place a dental crown typically occurs over two appointments at Shelly’s Smile and the appointments are just two weeks apart.

During your first visit to our office, we will prepare your tooth to receive the crown on your following appointment. This preparation includes the removal of any damage or decay to the affected tooth, as well as the removal of some of the tooth’s enamel. Next, impressions of your mouth will be taken and used as a model to form the crown. A temporary crown will then be placed until your permanent crown is ready.
